    Colonel Blades

    Anybody have any experience with Colonel Blades and their knives?

    I have been seeing them getting more popular recently and seeing Todd post a picture of one included in his recent EDC post on Pistol-Training.com made me want to know more about them.

    They certainly have excellent customer service. I picked up one of their live blade/trainer packages and the sheath that comes with the live blade (the trainer isn't designed to fit in the sheath, FWIW) was a bit loose. I emailed the company to ask about exchanging the sheath for one that had better retention. They said don't worry about exchanging it, we'll get a new sheath in the mail tomorrow. New sheath arrived a few days later and fit/held perfectly.

    I'll be the first to admit that I know precisely zero when it comes to knife fighting. The caveman-esq "punch bad thing with sharp thing" design of this knife appeals to me.

    Not for everyone, especially those who know how to use a knife well.
    For Todd, it works very well due to his mobility issues and no training in edged weapons.
    It is extremely simple to use, but could use a slight re-design to make it more user friendly.

    Despite what fetishists may say, there's not really that much more to it than that.

    Yeah, true.

    Except people tend to grab the blade, your hand or worse you get the blade stuck between a bone or something and they start rolling around.....with your finger hooked inside it.

    I dont know about you, but i need my fingers for stuff.

    If I'm stabbing someone and all I come out of it with is a broken or even severed finger or two... I'll still call that a fairly good outcome.
    I'll take heart in knowing they're probably having a worse day than I am considering the pointy end is stuck inside them somewhere.

    Just so I'm clear I'm not a fan of anything with a ring.

    Lesser of two evils, sure, id call that a good day too.

    Though I'd suggest planning on not breaking your fingers.
